    Me! Was snowed off yesterday too!

    I'm definitely not working from home though.. Missing the key ingredient to that - The children! Lol, where I nanny is at the bottom of a hill so my boss said not to try and come in as I may not get back up the hill to get home.

    We rarely get sent home, even though it's just non critical boring office admin work.

    Sadly, by the time the roads etc are bad enough to warrant going home, it's probably too late as ... the roads are too bad. We need to be sent home an hour before that happens!

    I got in early this morning because I left early - I'm sure it won't be the same for certain colleagues of mine who won't be making a huge amount of effort...

    It's still snowing here and really icy. I live on top of a hill and have to be at the hospital at 8.30 tomorrow morning & docs at 11 so hoping the snow stops as it is a busy one tomorrow.

    There will be other times I am sure.

    Me! But really only because my boiler has broken down and I am waiting for Mr Fixit to come and fix it. Otherwise I would be expected to struggle the 52 miles into London. Boo!

    I really am working from home today. I managed to get up the hill in my estate but all the local roads were at a standstill so I had no option but to give up. I live out in the country next to farms so I'm not exactly on main roads.

    I worked from home yesterday to avoid the tube strike chaos - but I came in today.

    The city is like a lovely snowglobe outside the big glass windows we have in our office Smiley smile

    I took a days holiday because school is closed and it gave me a chance to browse for some new lines and update my website, so spent loads of money this morning. Have to get in tomorrow though as I am training staff.

    I am in work today, there's not much snow to let me stay at home, but I am pretending I am working from home today - just can't seem to get going with anything Smiley smile BUt then again there has been no H&S issues to deal with recently so it's quite quiet for me at the moment Smiley smile
